caused the latter to fall towards the N. W., rather than towards the 



S. W. 



Several bungalows have been very seriously damaged : four or five, 

 including one three stories high, will have to be 

 largely rebuilt. As at Jullundur, the tendency has 



been for the upper parts of walls to fall upon the roofs of verandahs 



or lower wings of the house. Repairs had masked most details of 



interest before they could be examined. 



The N. parapet of the round massive bastion-like tower fell towards 

 the N. In other places brick- work fell from high 



Aniritsar City. 



Ram Bagh City situations, the general direction being towards the 

 Gate - S. or S.W. One room in an upper story contained 



two oblique cracks, one in each of two opposite walls running N. 30° E. 

 The cracks were fairly straight and haded towards the S. W., making 

 an angle of 40° with the vertical. There were no windows nor door- 

 ways in these walls to affect the direction of the cracks. 



The Clock Tower (see fig. 43) is a modern 

 structure of red-brick, covering a 

 small area, but 175 feet high. 

 A central iron core runs through the upper part of 

 the lofty steeple, and carries a weather-vane. Three 

 uneven horizontal cracks have split the upper 8 

 eet or so into three portions. The uppermost 

 portion still encircles the iron core, the middle 

 portion has, as far as could be judged from below, 

 taken the place of the lowest portion, which has 

 been thrown down towards the S. E. The middle 

 portion has been much shaken about and now rests 

 a little to the N. of the core. The indicator of the 

 weather-vane has been twisted round through 45°, 

 so that the N. pointer points towards the N.E. The 

 central steeple is the only part which has suffered.
